What Our Clients Say...
" I have been dealing with Kelly Clarkson and Karl Buchner at Giclee Canada / Chromasurge for some time now. Kelly and I have worked together on several of my images, both watercolour and oils, and I find him to have an impeccable eye for colour. In almost every instance, he has done a near perfect proof before presenting it to me for approval. Any adjustments needed have been minor, and in every case he has made them with genuine patience and enthusiasm.It is clear to me in working with Kelly that he holds his work to a very high standard, and is as invested as I am in creating reproductions of my artwork that are as faithful to the original as is possible.
In addition, all my orders are filled efficiently and professionally. Doing business with Kelly and Karl is a truly a pleasure, and I look forward to many years of continued association with them."

Kelly Clarkson is serious about the details and works with the artist to capture the spirit of the artwork. He has an artist's eye and a professional's skill that I find more than meets my expectations and thus makes Chroma Surge an integral step in the process of my art. "

"Kelly of Chromasurge was exceptional in his customer service and knowledge of printing. He was able to speak to my level of understanding and made suggestions that brought my project to a new level of "Wow"! His flexibility for project timelines and delivery was also greatly appreciated. I have recommended Chromasurge to others and will continue to do so as they have proven service above and beyond the call of duty."
